p-ERK 1/2 Antibody (pT202/pY204.22A): sc-136521

p-ERK 1/2 Antibody (pT202/pY204.22A) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects p-ERK 1/2 in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP). p-ERK 1/2 monoclonal antibody (pT202/pY204.22A) is available in both conjugated and non-conjugated forms, providing flexibility for various experimental needs. ERK 1 and ERK 2 play a crucial role in mediating signal transduction pathways activated by growth factors, hormones, and neurotransmitters, which are essential for cellular responses such as proliferation, differentiation, and survival. These proteins are located primarily in the cytoplasm but can translocate to the nucleus upon activation, where they influence gene expression. Dual phosphorylation of ERK 1 and ERK 2 at specific threonine and tyrosine residues is vital for activation, leading to conformational changes that allow phosphorylation of downstream targets. A characteristic Thr-Glu-Tyr motif maintains structural integrity of ERK proteins, and activation is tightly regulated by upstream kinases, including MAP kinase kinase (MEK) and Raf-1. Understanding p-ERK 1/2 dynamics is critical for elucidating mechanisms of various signaling pathways and their implications in diseases such as cancer, where aberrant MAPK signaling is often observed. anti-p-ERK 1/2 antibody (pT202/pY204.22A) provides a robust tool for examining dual phosphorylation of ERK 1/2 at Thr 202 and Tyr 204, a critical event that drives activation and downstream effects within the MAPK signaling pathway.
